Would she have less torque but a smother top range, more comfortable on the highways? the ad: http://seattle.craigslist.org/oly/mcy/4218222856.html

Bot's a frikkin' idiot... Huh

...

That said,..
I have ridden a Marauder (a red one, with drag bars)... and they are smooth and plenty torquey ...
I really enjoyed the ride... I don't know anything about the mechanical's or servicing...
... but they do make a nice ride... (solid, planted, powerful, and smooth,... very unintimidating to maneuver)...

I remember riding from Tucson to Bisbee Az... and easily sneaking up to 85mph and feeling like... MORE!... (I did hit 105mph that day)...
(that's rare for me)...

BTW... Bisbee is the town of 10,000 steps... (don't even think about it)...just have a coffee, buy a keychain, and go home...
Huh

...

...(I don't adjust easily to different bikes... but, the Marauder felt comfortable very quickly)...

Ludicrous Speed !... ... Huh

Looks like the marauder is a big savage.... but i'd go look at it and ride it before I bought it, i'm not a believer in buying long distance.

Been to Bisbee, did the mines, very cool place. It was a hopping town way back when. My wife grandmother, or somebody, I forget, was born there. Bisbee turquoise in unique and pretty.... I have nipple studs made from it Kiss

That said, I just bought this project

Gotta get her ready for crabbing and fishing by spring Lips Sealed

I have nipple studs made from it.

Ooookay, Ray,, I cant speak for others, but right now, I am having a problem here.. I cant decide if thats simply TMI & not something I wanna know about,
OR
If my curiosity demands a pic of said studs, NOT on the dresser, but IN-Stalled..
What happens if something like that gets smacked? Daaaang!
Might nip a ripple OFF,,

Hey, Ray, do not hasten to spend a lot of money to that project. the version here is, I think, better. always get there/ swim and catching the good fish, you put her in the back. how about this idea? Grin
